Insurance premiums on a 1996 can fluctuate considerably subject to many criteria. Some of these factors include:

• Traffic citations increase rates
• Credit rating impacts rates
• Where you live
• The number of annual miles
• Men typically pay more than women
• Low deductibles cost more
• Safety rating of your 1996
• Your job
• Insurance coverage level
• Whether you own your home

One important consideration that helps determine your rates is the age of the vehicle. Older models cost less compared to new models so the cost to replace them can decrease annual premiums. Although more recent vehicles have more advanced features included like adaptive cruise control, a collision avoidance system, autonomous braking, and an advanced theft deterrent system which may give discounted rates.

Liability insurance

1996 liability coverage will cover damage that occurs to people or other property in an accident. Liability can pay for things like legal defense fees, bail bonds, and repair bills for other people's vehicles. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision coverage

Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your resulting from a collision with another car or object. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. Collision coverage for your 1996 can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. It's also possible to increase the deductible in order to get cheaper .

Comprehensive protection

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay. The most you'll receive from a claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle's value is low it's not worth carrying full coverage.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle from other motorists when they are uninsured or don't have enough coverage. Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Medical expense coverage

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage reimburse you for short-term medical expenses like nursing services, prosthetic devices, and dental work. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
